I can`t understand,
She let go of my hand
And left me here facing the wall.
I`d sure like to know
Why she did go,
But I can`t get close to her at all.
Though we kissed through the wild blazing nighttime,
She said she would never forget.
But now mornin`s clear,
It`s like I ain`t here,
She just acts like we never have met.
It`s all new to me,
Like some mystery,
It could even be like a myth.
Yet it`s hard to think on,
That she`s the same one
That last night I was with.
From darkness, dreams`re deserted,
Am I still dreamin` yet?
I wish she`d unlock
Her voice once an` talk,
`Stead of acting like we never have met.
If she ain`t feelin` well,
Then why don`t she tell
`Stead of turnin` her back to my face?
Without any doubt,
She seems too far out
For me to return to her chase.
Though the night ran swirling an` whirling,
I remember her whispering yet.
But evidently she don`t
And evidently she won`t,
She just acts like we never have met.
If I didn`t have to guess,
I`d gladly confess
To anything I might`ve tried.
If I was with her too long
Or have done something wrong,
I wish she`d tell me what it is, I`ll run an` hide.
Though her skirt it swayed as a guitar played,
Her mouth was watery and wet.
But now something has changed
For she ain`t the same,
She just acts like we never have met.
I`m leavin` today,
I`ll be on my way
Of this I can`t say very much.
But if you want me to,
I can be just like you
An` pretend that we never have touched.
An` if anybody asks me, `Is it easy to forget?`
I`ll say, `It`s easily done,
You just pick anyone,
And pretend that you never have met!`
